10 WWE Stars To Replace Daniel Bryan As Intercontinental Champion

5. Tyson Kidd

A break-up could be on the horizon for the team of Kidd and Cesaro following their recent tag title loss to the New Day, which means that Tyson could finally be rewarded for his years of hard work with an exciting singles run. Shown to be an incredibly capable heel despite his clean-cut appearance, Kidd would be a fantastic first-time Intercontinental Champion thanks to his smarmy nature and excellent workrate. It could be argued that without the backing of Cesaro, Kidd becomes merely another bland wrestler on an uninspiring roster. However, with Natalya more than capable of mixing it in the ring, a billing of the duo as a sort of devious husband-and-wife could potentially be a heat magnet - especially if Nattie was interfering in order to protect an ever-lengthening title reign.
